Struggles Of Having A Naturally Loud Voice
Public Relations Sydney

Some of us cannot help the fact that we talk loudly, even when we are trying our very best to lower our volume. Those of us who face this struggle on a daily basis often encounter statements that we are so tired of hearing, but are all too familiar with to even really care.

1. Constantly being told to "stop yelling," when you absolutely aren't, which makes you mad, causing you to actually yell.

2. Please stop "shush-ing" me. You may politely ask me to lower my voice a little bit, but I am so sick of hearing "Shhhhhhhh!"

It also makes me feel nervous to ever speak again in fear that I will be rudely dismissed.

3. Just because I have a loud speaking voice, does not mean that I am outgoing.

Some people use their loud speaking as a way to mask their shy or nervous personality.

4. Whispering? What is that....?

Everyone can hear your private that become "not-so-private" convos, which definitely can have a negative effect, which can have people jumping in and joining in on those talks. And let's not forget the horrible feeling when you are out in a restaurant talking with someone, and the person five booths away can hear you perfectly fine, leaving you to know that you are really annoying the heck out of them. Then constantly looking at them out of the corner of your eye to make sure they are not giving you dirty looks.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
